Topoff 4 Will Start Without Topoff 3 Results (Government Executive) “The nation is preparing for its biggest terrorism exercise ever” in the fourth Top Officials exercise October 15-19, “when three fictional ‘dirty bombs’ go off and cripple transportation arteries in two major U.S. cities and Guam,” reports the Associated Press. “Yet even as this drill begins, details from the previous national exercise held in 2005 [Topoff 3] have yet to be publicly released--information that’s supposed to help officials prepare for the next real attack.” [View article]

Justice Dept. Endorsed Severe Interrogations in 2005 (New York Times) “Soon after Alberto R. Gonzales’s arrival as attorney general in February 2005, the Justice Department issued … an expansive endorsement of the harshest interrogation techniques ever used by the Central Intelligence Agency,” reports the New York Times. “The new opinion … for the first time provided explicit authorization to barrage terror suspects with a combination of painful physical and psychological tactics, including head-slapping, simulated drowning and frigid temperatures.” (See the Nov. 11, 2005, Quote of the Week.)

U.S. Labs Mishandling Deadly Germs (Yahoo! News; USA Today) “American laboratories handling the world’s deadliest germs and toxins have experienced more than 100 accidents and missing shipments since 2003, and the number is increasing as more labs do the work,” reports the Associated Press. (See the Stats of the Week.) “… the documented cases reflect poorly on procedures and oversight at high-security labs, some of which work with organisms and poisons that can cause illnesses with no cure. [See last week’s newsletter.] In some cases, labs have failed to report accidents as required by law.” Furthermore, “Federal terror-fighting agencies can’t identify all the American research laboratories that could become targets of attackers,” the Associated Press reported in a separate news story. “The Government Accountability Office asked a dozen agencies whether they kept track of all the labs handling dangerous germs and toxins, or knew the number. All responded negatively.” [View Yahoo! AP article] [View USA Today AP article] [View GAO report]

North Korea Agrees to Shut Down Nuclear Program; North and South Seek Peace and Development (Washington Post; International Herald Tribune) “North Korea will disable key nuclear facilities by the end of the year and start disclosing details of its nuclear programs under a six-nation agreement released [Wednesday] in China,” reports the Washington Post. “The deal appears to have been aided by a ‘side understanding’ between Washington and Pyongyang that could accelerate the removal of North Korea from a U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism. The United States also appeared willing to accept, initially, more limited action than it originally sought to disable three key nuclear facilities at Yongbyon, with the understanding that additional work to incapacitate the facilities would occur later. In exchange, North Korea is expected to disclose the extent of its weapons-grade plutonium, including how much was used in a nuclear test last year.” A day later, “the leaders of South and North Korea agreed … on economic projects intended to spur reform inside the North and to forge closer ties between the Koreas, and pledged to work toward a formal peace on the divided peninsula,” reports the International Herald Tribune.

Turkey Sees Upsurge in Terrorism (MSNBC) “One person was killed and 10 were injured in a series of bomb explosions in the Turkish city of Izmir on Tuesday amid mounting public, political and military anger about an upsurge in terrorist attacks in the country,” reports the Financial Times. “Two bombs exploded near a shopping centre in the Aegean port city, four days after a gun attack on a bus in south-east Turkey killed 13 people--all from the same extended family--in one of the worst such incidents for many months. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the Izmir attacks.

Turkey and Iraq Sign Deal to Combat Turkish Kurd Rebels (Google News) “Turkey and Iraq on [September 28] signed an agreement to crack down on Turkish Kurd rebels based in northern Iraq, but Turkey failed to secure a right for cross-border military operations,” reports Agence France-Presse. “The two countries pledged to ‘prevent the activities of terrorist organisations and primarily the [separatist Kurdistan Workers’ Party]’ Turkish Interior Minister Besir Atalay said.” The Kurdistan Workers’ Party “enjoys free movement in northern Iraq, where it has long taken refuge, and obtains weapons and explosives there for attacks across the border.” [View article]

FBI Takes Lead in Blackwater Probe (New York Times; Google News; MSNBC) “Guards working in Iraq for Blackwater USA have shot innocent Iraqi civilians [see the Sept. 21 newsletter] and have sought to cover up the incidents, sometimes with the help of the State Department,” says a report to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released on Monday, according to the New York Times. “… The shootings logged by Blackwater were more than those by the other two private military contractors combined … The Congressional report, based on 437 internal Blackwater incident reports as well as internal State Department correspondence, says that that Blackwater’s use of force ‘is frequent and extensive, resulting in significant casualties and property damage.’” A Congressional hearing was held on Tuesday, and “the FBI has taken over the lead from the State Department on the investigations into” Blackwater, reports Agence France-Presse. Blackwater “has had to fire 122 people over the past three years”--“roughly one-seventh of the work force that Blackwater has in Iraq,” reports the Associated Press.

Iraqi Civilian Casualties Drop 50% (MSNBC) “The Iraqi government reported on Monday that civilian casualties dropped by more than 50 per cent in September, a month in which US casualties also declined to their lowest level in 14 months,” reports the Financial Times. “All estimates of civilian casualties are contentious, due to the difficulty of obtaining complete data from conflict zones scattered across the country as well as the danger that statistics will be politically manipulated. But September’s drop is one of the most dramatic since the Iraqi government began releasing figures, and is in rough accordance with other data suggesting [that] levels of violence may be dropping.” [View article]

Canadian Nonprofits Avoid Counterterror Probes (Vancouver [British Columbia] Sun) “Non-profit organizations could be opening bank accounts and sending money to terrorists overseas almost completely undetected, the head of the [British Columbia] Corporate Registry [Ron Townshend] admitted Wednesday,” reports the Sun. “… there is virtually no scrutiny of the activities of thousands of registered non-profits that don’t fall under the jurisdiction of the Canada Revenue Agency as registered charities. Townshend said even if the federal government removes a charity’s designation for suspected terrorist links, it can still remain as a registered non-profit in provincial jurisdiction.” [View article]

Thai Cooking Prompts London Hazmat Response (London Telegraph) “Police cordoned off three streets and firefighters smashed down a door after reports of a chemical attack on a busy shopping street in London’s Soho,” reports the Telegraph. “But instead of a terrorist attack or a toxic leak, all police found was a Thai cook preparing chilli sauce.

A Hazardous Area Response Team” emerged from the Thai Cottage restaurant “with a 9lb pot of chillies.” [View article]

Tainted Toothpaste Had Ingredients on Label (New York Times) Last May in Panama, Eduardo Arias “read the label on a 59-cent tube of toothpaste” and saw “two words that had been overlooked by government inspectors and health authorities in dozens of countries: diethylene glycol, the same sweet-tasting, poisonous ingredient in antifreeze that had been mixed into cold syrup [in Panama], killing or disabling at least 138 Panamanians last year,” reports the New York Times. After “Arias reported his discovery,” the poison toothpaste was traced to China (see the May 11 newsletter), and “health alerts have now been issued in 34 countries.… The toothpaste scare helped galvanize global concerns about the quality of China’s exports in general, prompting the government there to promise to reform how food, medicine and consumer products are regulated. And other countries are re-examining how well they monitor imported products.” [View article]

National Flood Insurance Program Owes U.S. Treasury $17.5 Billion The National Flood Insurance Program, managed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, is unlikely to be able to pay its debt to the Treasury “because the program’s premium rates have been set to cover an average loss year, which until 2005 did not include any catastrophic losses,” according to the Government Accountability Office.

Federal Executive Boards Left Out of Pandemic Flu Plans Federal executive boards “bring together federal agency and community leaders in major metropolitan areas outside Washington, D.C., to discuss issues of common interest, including pandemic influenza,” notes the Government Accountability Office, but “their role is not defined in national emergency plans,” and they “depend on host agencies and other member agencies for their resources,” resulting in inconsistent funding and creating “uncertainty for the boards in planning and committing to provide emergency support services.” [View summary]

Judges Restrict Public Access to Pipeline Data in Washington State (Bellingham [WA] Herald) “Citing terrorist threats and improper procedure by a lower-court judge, the Washington state District of Appeals Division II panel” on Tuesday ruled “in favor of a coalition of pipeline companies that sought to keep certain pipeline data out of the hands of the public,” reports the Bellingham Herald. “… The data includes specific parts of the pipeline, like compression stations and valves. The information can be placed over other maps to see where those specific parts are located in conjunction with businesses or homes or perhaps environmentally sensitive areas such as wetlands.

Gunman at St. John’s U. Tests Warning System (New York Times) “A text-messaging system that could send information about an unfolding crisis to individual cellphones” got the ultimate test on September 26 “when a gunman in a mask strode onto the St. John’s campus in Jamaica, Queens [NY],” reports the New York Times. “Though no one was hurt, the incident showed that large, dispersed crowds--at least 10,000 students were on the campus at the time--could respond calmly in the face of alarming information.” The security system designed by MIR3 “is now in use at 70 universities.” But “mass notification systems bring with them their own risks, chief among them the spread of rumors or bad information, said security officials at several area universities.” Columbia University “is developing a system similar to the one used by St. John’s”--which “may decide to make participation mandatory.” [View article]
